January 2015 marked the coming of a new year in Colorado craft beer and with it the release of some awesome winter seasonals, some returning favorites and even some specialty brews not usually seen. With the continuation of Winter, all of the winter and some spring beers are now making an appearance. Plenty of dark beers, barleywines, porters, stouts and barrel aged beers are more common this time of year.

The following list is a recap of just some of the known craft beers that were released during the last month in Colorado. How many of these beers did you try? Winter seasonals were released in numbers. Here's what was new for the month of January 2015 in Colorado.
